COLORADO TRAIL - Colorado, USA

Running nearly 500 miles from Denver to Durango, the Colorado Trail winds its way through the best of the famous Rocky Mountains. Much of the trail is wild, crossing seven national forests and six wilderness areas. A series of historic towns near the trail offer insights into western culture and ready accommodations and amenities; however, this is primarily a backpacking trip at high elevations.

Walkers on the Colorado Trail enjoy views of several 14,000-foot peaks of the Collegiate Range of the Colorado Rockies.
